These former bourbon barrels rested on the upper level of the traditional dunnage warehouse. The whisky was distilled in summer 2013 and filled into casks in July that year. It was twelve years old when bottled in June 2026. The edition comprises 3,775 bottles at 46% alcohol, each containing 0.7 litres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe barley can also be traced back to the family\u0026#39;s own farm: the Concerto variety grew in Daftmill\u0026#39;s southern fields and was harvested on 2 and 3 September 2011. After drying and storage on the farm, it was malted in Alloa in spring 2012. The whisky is bottled without chill filtration or added colouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside sweet cereal and stone-fruit notes, this release reveals herbs with floral touches, vanilla cream and raw biscuit dough. Hints of ginger, melon and orchard fruit add to this range of flavours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e The nose is soft and sweet.

In 2003, Francis and Ian Cuthbert began planning the conversion of the old mill buildings into a distillery. Following the conversion and installation of the equipment, the first whisky was produced on 16 December 2005. The copper stills and mash tun came from Forsyths in Rothes, while local tradespeople carried out much of the remaining work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe farming calendar determines the distilling seasons: production takes place during the quieter winter months and a break in farm work in June and July, before the harvest begins. Daftmill uses home-grown barley and water from its own artesian well. The distillery and farm are also linked through the reuse of production residues: spent grain feeds the cattle, while liquid distillation residues serve as fertiliser. Warmed cooling water is saved for the next mash or directed into the duck pond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFacts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAge\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e12 years\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCountry of origin\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eScotland\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProduct category\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eWhisky\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSmoke\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNot smoky\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003ePackaging\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProduct type\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSingle Malt\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eLowlands\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eVolume\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e0.7 litres\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAlcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e46%\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eDistillation year\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e2013\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eResponsible market operator\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003ebringts Schweiz GmbH, Steinrain 18, 4112 Flüh\/CH\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBottler\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOfficial bottling\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBottling year\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e2026\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eColouring\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask strength or high alcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eChill filtration\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAllergens\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOrganic certification\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eDaftmill Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eDaftmill\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBottle count\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e3,775\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask type\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eFirst-fill bourbon barrels\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Daftmill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57660266316149,"sku":"124128","price":138.45,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0362\/8734\/8871\/files\/a7da3ec3f515696737ebeaffb0bdec5f.webp?v=1792192261","url":"https:\/\/www.bringts.ch\/en\/products\/daftmill-2013-2026-12-y-o-summer-release","provider":"bringts.ch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
